Kettering General Hospital 'needs £1.1bn to realise rebuild plans'

Kettering General Hospital 'needs £1.1bn to realise rebuild plans' An NHS hospital says it needs at least another £765m in government funding if its rebuild plans are to be fully realised.

Kettering General Hospital said £46m has been committed for an urgent care hub to replace its A&E department, as well as £350m for other improvements.

Hospital bosses says the funds fall "significantly short" of the £1.1bn cost of a fully new hospital. BBC Northampton
